I would like to be able to find a job once I graduate as a doctor. Resident doctors will strike until the government is ready to listen.
🚨 Strike action confirmed 🚨 Resident doctors in England will walk out 7am, 14–19 Nov. We don’t take this step lightly but pay restoration and jobs can’t wait. 🔗 https://t.co/x6dUubNcEn

When I criticized Netanyahu's war strategy in Gaza, and how it failed to produce alternatives to Hamas's control because he kept saying no to virtually any vision/plan/framework to displace the terror group for 2 years, all hell broke loose & "pro-Israel" accounts lost their

We have now counted and had multiple mosques reporting us. 19 mosques attacked since June 2025 to today. This map is a week old. What is happening to our country when mosques and synagogues are attacked. Extremism and political rabble rousing are having real world impacts.

There‘s an NHS doctor who just a week ago escaped being suspended for her antisemitic tweets. Apparently her Nazi-like hatred was freedom of speech. All day she’s been retweeting people excusing the targeting of Jews going to synagogue. Is this free speech NHS style
